you laugh, but it's not as stupid as it sounds at first...I should send my Prophesy USA to Cliff…
He can add it in….
If they want it I’ll send it in and cover the costs… no problem..you laugh, but it's not as stupid as it sounds at first...
How much of it is digital? Cliff's not going to model another company's digital processing, is he?I should send my Prophesy USA to Cliff…

Hmmm? Didn't say he left. But hey, OK then!Maybe he just took Sunday off. I'd give it a couple of days before concluding that he ghosted.
I have no idea… I don’t really they’d want to.How much of it is digital? Cliff's not going to model another company's digital processing, is he?
No, but others have.Hmmm? Didn't say he left. But hey, OK then!
Easy solution. Model the tube preamp that the Prophecy models.How much of it is digital? Cliff's not going to model another company's digital processing, is he?
I've owned just about every preamp/modeler available Including the Prophesy, and the Axe-FX III has no problem out gaining it. I made presets for the Rocktron units for years and even had my presets factory installed on the "online" preamp versions.
First let's talk about the type of gain you are hearing/feeling. the Prophesy makes use of a pre-EQ to push or clean up the amp section. this one little thing completely changes the nature of the distortion. Rocktron presets sometimes used a boost at around 1khz by several db. my first suggestion is to go into the Prophesy and take a look at the pre-EQ and write down what they are boosting and cutting, then set up an eq first thing in the chain on the AXE-FX III. next I would try the Marshall amp variants and the Friedmans to start with. classic Rocktron tones can be had this way.
I'm not sure what "completely change" means, but input EQ will change the nature of the distortion. When you emphasize certain frequencies over other frequencies, those frequencies will distort before the other frequencies. You'll get a different sound and feel that goes beyond simple EQ....a parametric EQ boost at 1k isn't going to COMPLETELY change the nature of the distortion...An EQ is just an EQ.
I just want to make it clear that using an EQ over an SD1 or TS9 isn't going to fix the problem OP has described.I'm not sure what "completely change" means, but input EQ will change the nature of the distortion.

The "classic" use of a TS9 for high gain tones is all about pre-EQ and level, so I'm not sure I agree with you.I just want to make it clear that using an EQ over an SD1 or TS9 isn't going to fix the problem OP has described.
Yeah that's exactly what I'm saying. The TS9 and SD1 both do that, I recommended he try it in front of friedmans, he did, then he said he got a blues overdrive sound and not a high gain sound.The "classic" use of a TS9 for high gain tones is all about pre-EQ and level, so I'm not sure I agree with you.
Which can also be done with an EQYeah that's exactly what I'm saying. The TS9 and SD1 both do that, I recommended he try it in front of friedmans, he did, then he said he got a blues overdrive sound and not a high gain sound.
It is another tool in the arsenal, though.I just want to make it clear that using an EQ over an SD1 or TS9 isn't going to fix the problem OP has described.
